Pulled Pork


Pulled pork is probably one of the most cooked and eaten forms of BBQ. Its easy to make and boy is it good.
To start you need to buy a pork butt. Bone in or Bone out it doesn't really matter. Bone in is a little less expensive. I prefer it with the Bone in. (It gives my dog some BBQ too.)

You will want to clean and trim the butt. Then you will want to apply your rub. Don't be shy "Nothing beats a good butt rub!" you know.
Place the butt in the smoker and smoke at 220 degrees for 10 hours. Wrap in foil and smoke for another 2 hours. When the meat reaches 195 degrees (this is shredding temperature.)remove from smoker and the foil and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes.
Now its time to pull.

This is where the fun starts. I like to use some rubber gloves. The big yellow kitchen glove's work great.

The meat is very hot and the glove's help keep your hands from getting burned. Place the meat on a cutting board and just rip it apart. The meat should shred easily. Once shredded add your favorite BBQ sauce and enjoy. Makes fantastic sandwiches. Just put on a bun and add a little Cole slaw. Fantastic.
